Happy, happy, happy, happy, happy!

I'm happy, happy, happy, happy!

Do you know why?

I bet you can guess.

Yup, it's SNOWING! Real snow this time! The last snowfall (in October!) a few weeks ago wasn't REALLY snow - just bits of snow that melted as soon as it arrived ... but not today! We're having our first REAL snowfall of the year.

Yahoooo! I feel very festive this morning. Christmas lights are glowing, snow is gently falling and Christmas music is playing ... perfection!

Of course, I HAD to snap a picture of the snowfall. :)

Isn't it lovely?!

Okay, time for some more sneak peeks for the mothers out there that I KNOW are waiting patiently! ;) I recently held a mini workshop at a local Mommy and Babies group - Baby Song - hosted at New Hope Community Church ... here are some of the ADORABLE babies from that group.

Seriously.

Does it get any better than 22 (or more?) gorgeous babies and mommas?!

Ohmygosh! SO cute!!

This little guy had AMAZING eyes ... wow!!

More to come soon!

With the Chrsitmas season now here, many of us find it in our hearts to help out families that may not have enough during the holiday season. This Christmas is an amazing time to help out the local families in the Orangeville area ... how can you help?

TOILET PAPER donations.

Yes .... Gigi Photography is collecting TOILET PAPER for the Salvation Army's local hamper drive (hampers are provided full of Christmas items, food and gifts for local families in need) ... last year, you guys REALLY stepped up to the plate and helped with the donations. My studio was half filled with toilet paper rolls!! AMAZING! It was AWESOME!

Let's do it again this year!! We will be needing TONS of toilet paper (not sure how many ... I will get back to you on that one!) but if you are in the Dufferin Country area, I encourage you to participate.

Just pick up an extra package of toilet paper the next time you're grocery shopping and then drop it off at the studio - 12 York Street, Orangeville - when you're out and about. Just leave it at the studio door if there is no answer (could be shooting a session or away) - and I will pick it up that day. THANK YOU for helping out. I look forward to seeing how many donations arrive!!!

We had our first real snowfall in Alliston on that October morning you were talking about. So much so that we got out the snowpants and boots and went for a sleigh ride. Usually it's the other way around.

What amazing pics of the Baby Song group. Thanks so much for the amazing pic of my little beauty. It is awesome. I also agree with the other posts. Your house is gorgeous and makes the snow bareable when looking at it like that....well almost :)
